HBT: Marlins favored to land Buehrle?

6:30 p.m. EDT update: CSN Chicago?s Chuck Garfien has the Marlins as the favorites to land Buehrle, a scenario that would reunite the left-hander with his former manager in Chicago, Ozzie Guillen. The Rangers and Nationals remain in the mix, and a return to the White Sox still hasn?t been ruled out.

The hot stove is finally starting to heat up.

According to Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, three teams have made substantial three-year offers to free agent left-hander Mark Buehrle and an agreement could happen ?quickly this week.?

The Nationals, Diamondbacks,?Cubs, Marlins, Twins, Rangers, Yankees, Royals, Cardinals and Red Sox have all been linked to the veteran southpaw since free agency began, but Cowley has not been told where exactly the three-year proposals came from.

Buehrle, 32, posted a rock-solid 3.59 ERA in 31 starts this year for the White Sox and boasts a 3.87 ERA over his past seven seasons. He?s topped 200 innings pitched each year since 2001.

Buehrle is said to be demanding a no-trade clause and likely has enough leverage to hold out for one.
